OVERVIEW

This trip offers something for everyone! Enjoy wildlife, serenity, and natural beauty that only the Colorado River can offer. You’ll have plenty of time to take in historic cabins, scenic waterfalls, and steep canyon walls towering over 100′ above your head. Bald eagles, black bears, and the endangered Colorado river otter are often seen on this fun section of the river.

After arriving at camp, you’ll have plenty of time for hiking, fishing, fossil hunting, or just relaxing beside the river while your guides prepare a delicious and hearty dinner.

Following a good night’s sleep and filling breakfast, you’ll be ready to head back out to the river for a morning of more fun and relaxation, including time in our inflatable kayaks or on our standup paddleboards. Rapids on the Upper Colorado are Class II and great for all ages and ability levels. Minimum 5 years old. Reservations required.
